Bingo!

At last!
I have been through the book and weeded out errors....
I have transcribed nearly all of the new interviews...
I have worked out which sections are going to have new material inserted into them...
And
I have started writing! 30 very fruitful minutes this morning, more than that tomorrow and the next day and the next.
What a puzzle it had seemed, how to crack into a sealed book! But I know what to do now, and it's going to take me two weeks to finish it, I think, I hope.....

I can't decide what I want to be. I thought I was an illustrator and then I turned into a musician by accident. Along the way I've wanted to be a fireman and HGV driver and it's getting too late now! I can't stop writing songs, and if I did, I'd not be able to stop drawing pictures. I wish I could play piano, trumpet and accordion. I always used to long for long blonde hair until I dyed my hair blonde and I looked disgusting. I nearly bought a motorbike (BSA Bantam), but spent the money on a bass amplifier instead and joined Joby and the Hooligans in 1977. I can't resist going into charity shops and buying clothes which I often take back the next day.
I wrote a book called 'The Lost Women of Rock Music: female musicians of the punk era', under the name Helen Reddington, which is available from Amazon in paperback (and your local library)
I eat Magnum Classics all summer long, and mini-poppadums all winter. In spring and autumn, I don't eat anything.
